Once the two (2) 3/8" holes have been field drilled, attach the starter brackets to the sidewall as shown in
Figure 7C . Check the top ladder section to make sure the ladder rung dimples are to the top. Attach starter
brackets to the top of the ladder. It will also be necessary to field drill a 3/8" hole on the ladder section for
the starter bracket. Field drill this hole 2" below the pre-drilled hole that is 1" from the top of the ladder.
See general detail information
on Page 12 for the proper installation of additional ladder sections required.
Standoff brackets must be installed on the ladder sections and attached to the sidewall at each horizontal
seam and repeated every 44". Use 5/16" x 3/4" bin bolts for all connections.
